Abyss Summoner-Chapter 137 - 135: Headless Knight

At this moment, Chen Feng was becoming more and more expectant, but at the same time felt a bit surprised. The aura emanating from the crack clearly indicated it was another undead creature.

Recently, it seemed that Chen Feng had developed a bond with undead creatures.

Mourner, Undead Mage, and now another one...

"There are many kinds of undead creatures. Even ordinary skeletons come in hundreds of varieties. I wonder what form this summoned undead will take this time."

Chen Feng stood quietly in place, waiting for the summoned beast to appear before him.

As the force reached its peak, Chen Feng’s pupils suddenly contracted. In front of him, shrouded in a metallic aura, a "monster" appeared in the black mist. It sat astride a giant skeleton horse, clad in jet-black armor, and in its hand, it held a sword with a blood groove.

But what was most horrifying was that it didn’t have a head; it was just a body sitting atop the skeleton horse.

When this undead creature descended onto the field, it suddenly became extremely frenzied. It raised the longsword in its hand with one arm and slashed at the head of the Blade Mantis!

"Sizzle, sizzle..."

The longsword in its hand was of unimaginable sharpness, effortlessly cutting off the Blade Mantis’s head. Then, it picked up the head at its feet and placed it on its own body.

Some greenish ichor dripped onto the undead creature’s neck, and the act of slaughter delighted the skeleton horse, whose eyes burned with an even more intense soul fire.

Headless Knight.

It had many titles.

Slayer, Beheader, Walking Fear.

In its previous life, the Headless Knight was a valiant knight who perished on the battlefield, having its head severed by the enemy. Thus, it rides a skeleton horse, constantly searching for its lost head. Whenever it sees an enemy, it decapitates them and places the head on its body.

The Headless Knight tightly held the reins of the skeleton horse beneath it. Compared to the resentful Mourner, the Headless Knight’s slaughter was even more unfathomable. The whip it used to drive the warhorse was made from human spinal cords.

At this time, the Headless Knight stood in front of Chen Feng, with the Blade Mantis’s head atop its own, looking exceedingly bizarre. Yet, compared to the other unstable summoned beasts from previous summonings,

the Headless Knight showed no hostility whatsoever.

In life, it was a knight, and even in death, its will retained the mark of loyalty.

A powerful summoned beast.

Not only was the Headless Knight formidable, but even the skeleton horse beneath it was of Silver Level. Its body was devoid of any flesh, and its blue eyes emitted a cold gaze.

Barbaric Charge.

When the knight and the warhorse charged, the explosive force could even shatter bridges.

It was worth it!

This was a complete package deal!

With a snap of his fingers, Chen Feng made the Headless Knight disappear into the crack, sealing a contract with it. When needed, the Headless Knight would serve Chen Feng unconditionally for five minutes.

............

Dim candlelight illuminated the room before her.

Flora was sitting by the bed, drinking milk.

Wonderful food.

Looking at the milk before her, Flora’s tense expression relaxed at this moment. In the Abyss, the environment was terrifyingly harsh, and what passed for food had no effect other than filling one’s belly.

But the food here was different...

Milk, bread, biscuits, and noodles that only needed a bit of hot water to be ready...

Hmm...

It’s called instant noodles.

Flora had never tasted such delicious food before. For this Master of Fist from the Abyss, it seemed as though her soul was being eroded, indulging in these delicacies.

Flora often thought of her people. While she indulged in these sweet foods, her people lived lives where they barely had enough to eat.

Guilt.

But she couldn’t control it. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Especially the milk in front of her. Flora swore that not even the legendary Water of Life was as alluring as what was in her bowl.

"Mmm..."

Flora bowed her head, sending the milk into her mouth.

Cat Race.

They retained some feline traits, such as a love for sweets.

When Chen Feng pushed open the door, the milk in Flora’s hand was almost gone. Perhaps having indulged too much, there were even some milk droplets on the tip of her nose.

An Yi lingered on her face, refusing to fade away. Her fiery red hair cascaded down her shoulders. At this moment, Flora seemed a little less the resolute Master of Fist and a bit more like a shy maiden.

Curled up in the chair, her eyes overflowed with spiritual qi, and her lazy appearance was exceedingly adorable.

Perhaps too absorbed, Flora didn’t notice until the door was opened. She raised her head in surprise. Seeing Chen Feng’s face, Flora felt a bit at a loss. She anxiously put down the bowl, looking like a thief caught stealing.

Her dignity did not allow her to show that kind of demeanor in front of Chen Feng.

"Don’t be so distant. From the moment you accepted the contract, all of this is rightfully yours!"

Noticing something, Flora’s face flushed. For someone known to have slain countless demons, this was an unusual display of shyness.

"How are your people? Poor cats, they would be much better off if food were more abundant..." Chen Feng’s soft voice echoed in Flora’s ears.

Flora widened her eyes. She’s no fool, knowing that Chen Feng deliberately said those words for her to hear.

’Thank you for everything you have done for me and my people. I will forever be loyal to you!’

Seeing Flora’s response, Chen Feng nodded with satisfaction.

Inspiring both fear and respect is a technique that every Summoner must master.

Flora was smart. She knew when to express herself, a rare quality in the chaotic Abyss.
